Before proceeding, please read the information in the following links:
https://philcoradio.com/library/index.ph...info-1-47/
https://philcoradio.com/library/index.ph...-model-90/
The first gives correct information on the two metal cans which contain three capacitors apiece. (Oh, and it's part 24 and part 30, not C24 and C30.)
The second gives the proper IF frequencies for the three different versions of model 90.
I should add that the capacitors inside cans 24 and 30 are accessed by unfolding four metal tabs on the end where the wires exit the can, then pulling the fiber cover away, and then pulling out the wax-encased guts.
This post from my blog should assist you with those cans:
